YEREVAN, JUNE 13, NOYAN TAPAN. Discussion of an issue directly relating
to Armenia is not invisaged by the agenda of the summer session of
the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe to be convened in
Strasbourg on June 26-30. Tigran Torosian, the RA NA Speaker, the head
of the Armenian delegation to the Assembly informed the Noyan Tapan
correspondent about it. He did not exclude possibility of discussion
of an issue relating to the South Caucasian region, especially to
Azerbaijan, connected with holding parliamentary elections in that
country. According to T.Torosian, involvement of the above-mentioned
issue in the agenda of the Assembly is greatly provided by discussions
envisaged before that at the monitoring committee.

It is still uncertain if Tigran Torosian undertaken the NA Chairman’s
post these days will head the national delegation to the PACE in
future as well, or commissions of the delegation head will be passed
to another member of the delegation.
